Inbound Telemarketing Services: Good Service for a Lot Less Money

by Lynn Garland

Inbound telemarketing services are sprouting up all over the United States and even overseas. It is very common for business owners to outsource this service, even to other countries where they can get good service for a lot less money.

Customers who want answers do not want to wait for business hours. Most businesses are very competitive in the United States and customer service plays a huge role in getting the business from the customer. A customer may be more inclined to go with a business that can answer their questions for them twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. When a customer wants information, they want it right away. And they are willing to pay for it.

All calls must be answered promptly and in a courteous manner. Any telemarketing service that you employ should possess these qualities as well as being efficient. Your customers will definitely not call back if one of your representatives is rude or curt to them.

When a telemarketing service responds to the inbound calls from your customers they are actually representing your company. Your customers should not have any idea that a telemarketing service is answering the calls and not your company directly. Be sure that the telemarketers talk clearly and if you have outsourced the service from another country that they can speak English too.

If many of your customers speak another language besides English, make sure that the telemarketing service has representatives who are bilingual. This is important to serve your non English-speaking customers.

Wages in some areas overseas are a lot cheaper than in the United States. Therefore, you will find many businesses outsourcing their telemarketing services to theses areas. In addition, when handling more technical questions you will find the people to be very polite and patient with the customer’s inquiries. This is an example of why a lot of American businesses are sending their technical inbound telemarketing calls to other countries.

Call centers provide customer service twenty-four hours a day and seven days a week. Customers are therefore much happier because if they require service it is just a phone call away. Representatives are given a script to go by so there is similarity in the level of knowledge and they also maintain a certain quality in the service being provided.

Make sure that you get information such as to how many employees are at the call service center, how long an average customer has to wait for a call to be answered and the average length of time for each employee at the service center. This will give you a good idea of how the center is run. You should also see if you are able to call the center yourself before you sign a contract to make sure that things are handled properly. This is a good way to test the center and put yourself in the shoes of your customer.

Now that you know the benefits of employing an inbound telemarketing service you should be able to find one to perfectly fit your business needs. By giving your customers round the clock customer service, any rates and prices that you will have to pay for this service will be doubled in profits.
